These units are designed to replace metal halide and sodium high bays and provide considerable saving both in energy and maintenance costs.

Light level measurements taken directly underneath 100W LED and 400W metal halide high-bays, at same height and with the same amount of natural light present show an increase of over 250% for the LED.LED high-bays provide directional light and avoid lighting up unnecessary walls or other planes as with the metal halide high-bays.

With a high system efficiency of 80 lm/W the LED high-bay is no match for the old metal halide where efficiency can go down to 35-40% in time.

Incorporating a colour temperature between 6000-6500K, the LED High-Bays provide a natural Daylight more comfortable to the human eye compared to the 5200K of the metal halide lamp.

Sustaining a lifespan of over 50,000 hours, the LED high bays out shine the performance of traditional metal halides lamps, which can sustain only a 8000 hour lifespan and a rated lamp survival factor of 81% at 6000h and 55% at 8000h.

Being capable to switch on/off instantly the LED High-Bays can be used together with motion sensors to provide 100% energy savings when the space is not occupied, a feature not achievable with the old metal halide bays.

This lamp can be recycled FREE of charge at any Recolight collection point.
